Crystal Palace and Leeds United meet this afternoon in what could be one of the weekend’s most entertaining Premier League contests.
Both sides have picked up 10 points from their opening seven games, with Palace (12th) and Leeds (13th) looking to climb into the top half of the table.
Roy Hodgson’s Eagles are a work in progress after a real mix of results this season, while Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds have thrilled on their return to the top flight but are still seeking balance.
Date, time and venue
Crystal Palace vs Leeds United is scheduled for a 3pm GMT kick-off on Saturday, November 7 2020.
The match will be held behind closed doors at Selhurst Park.
How to watch
TV channel: The match will be televised on BT Sport Box Office.
Team news
Hodgson will be without defensive trio Tyrick Mitchell, James Tomkins and Joel Ward, while captain Luka Milivojevic is suspended.
Crystal Palace predicted XI (4-4-2): Guaita; Clyne, Kouyate, Cahill, Van Aanholt; Townsend, McArthur, Riedewald, Schlupp; Zaha, Batshuayi
Prediction: Crystal Palace 2-2 Leeds
With both sides sitting just outside the top 10, expect this to be an end-to-end battle. Leeds will certainly feel they can take something away from south London, especially with Palace short of a few players - but don’t write off Hodgson’s Eagles.
